SD Joint Training Program

 

Business Overview

As education and research at higher education institutions become more advanced and complex, SD has been mandatory since 2017, and it is expected that faculty and staff will further improve their qualifications and promote faculty-staff collaboration.
In addition, the environment surrounding higher education institutions is changing rapidly, and university staff are increasingly required to acquire broad knowledge and high levels of expertise. The
SD joint training program is a project aimed at reducing expenses for member universities by taking advantage of economies of scale, with the aim of improving staff capabilities and streamlining and enhancing university operations.
Please use it as an opportunity to exchange information and build networks across universities.

Business etiquette that becomes easier to understand the more you learn

1. Training Overview

  • Students will learn the necessary knowledge as university staff, business etiquette, and the basics of how to proceed with work, and acquire the ability to adapt to the job and workplace.
  • Most of the problems that young employees encounter at their new workplaces are related to speaking. For example, not reporting, not being able to use honorific language, not answering the phone, making negative comments, etc. In other words, we will teach you how to approach “how to speak like a working adult,” which is important in educating new and young employees.
  • In addition, whether or not you can accurately grasp the other person’s intentions and requests depends largely on the “listening skills” of the person you are speaking with. In order to hear the necessary information without any excess or deficiency, we will teach you how to listen with your whole body (ears, mouth, eyes, head, body, and mind) and effective questioning techniques to obtain information yourself.

2. Key points for training management

  • By establishing a flow for each topic from lectures (injecting knowledge) to exercises (practice), we achieve “input ⇒ strengthening practical skills through output.”
  • The training will involve role-playing and telephone practice exercises based on actual situations.
  • Participants will be given “training sheets” that they create themselves by writing down key points and thoughts, allowing them to concentrate better during the course.
